"2016

March 19: Podesta receives an email that allows the Russians to access his email account.
* April 26: Papadopoulos is told by Mifsud that the Russians have “dirt” on Clinton in the form of emails.
* May: Papadopoulos tells the Australian diplomat what he’s heard.
* Mid-June: Files stolen from the DNC begin to leak.
* June 20: Steele’s first report is filed.
* First week of July: Steele has an initial meeting with the FBI.
* Early July: The Australians tell the FBI what they’d heard.
* July 19-Sept. 14: Steele files 11 more reports.
* Mid- to late September: Steele meets with an FBI contact in Rome.
* Oct. 7: Intelligence officials publicly warn of attempts by Russia to interfere with the election. The same day, Podesta’s emails begin to be leaked by WikiLeaks.
* Nov. 8: Trump wins the presidential election.
* Dec. 13: The last report is added to the dossier.
2017
* Jan. 20: Trump is inaugurated.
* Jan. 27: Papadopoulos is interviewed by the FBI.
* July 27: Papadopoulos is arrested.
* Aug. 22: Simpson testifies before the Senate Judiciary Committee.
* Oct. 30: Papadopoulos’ admission of having lied to the FBI is made public.
The revelation from the testimony released Tuesday seems like a new piece to the puzzle — but it’s worth remembering that what we now know about Papadopoulos was not public at the time. That may help explain part of Simpson’s reluctance to point a finger at Papadopoulos as that unnamed corroborator.
Why didn’t Simpson simply share the identity of the source with the Senate? He explained that it was for “security” reasons."

Copy and paste talking points all you want, but this "The issue here is if this is correct, did the FBI and DOJ use the opposition research funded dossier collaborated by the drunk braggart as written by and told by foreign spies or diplomats to get FISA warrants or did they have more?" is not the issue.

From the actual report:

Quote:

"Essentially what he (Christopher Steele) told me was they (the FBI) had other intelligence about this matter from an internal Trump campaign source and that -- that they -- my understanding was that they believed Chris at this point -- that they believed Chris's information might be credible because they had other intelligence that indicated the same thing and one of those pieces of intelligence was a human source from inside the Trump organization."

The dossier collaborated information they already had, not the other way around. The dossier was not the source for Mueller - it was corroborative evidence for information they already had outside of the dossier. It was not the foundation of the Russia investigation by FBI.

Do you want to try again? (As in find new talking points)

Neat.

Simpson also testified that Steele told him the FBI had similar intelligence from "an internal Trump campaign source"

Add that person to

Flynn
Sater
Priebus
McGahn
Papadopolus

For people that have cut a deal with Mueller and you have an interesting witness list being assembled.
